    If all falls into place financially I hope to get to Bond In Motion for my Birthday at the end of this month. (Crosses fingers)

    I zoomed round the 007 Museum before it closed down in the Lake District back in 2009, so I really want to take my time with this, like the Barbican.

    Blueville, cheers for the info in poast 17. - Can you PM me with details of the Filton event? Thanks.
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    It's awful. Save your money. Even if you take your time, you can see everything in detail while lingering in about 45 minutes.... and that's really lingering.

    Here's my Bond in Motion @ LFM album on facebook:

    I wouldn't rate the exhibit "awful" but it certainly does not compare with the Beaulieu version or Designing 007. Still if you were unable to see either of those and it isn't a major financial burden to check this one out, by all means go for it (all the same though, ya, I wouldn't make a special trip; 45 min really is about it).

    For contrast, here's my visit to the larger installation at Beaulieu:

    Went to The Bond in motion last week (TP hint hint) very enjoyable day out ,started the day with a pint or 3 of Guinness
    for breakfast then poped into the exhibition , told by bloke on the door "no flash photography" so please excuse picture quality (im no thunderpussy) :) some staggering facts and figures ,like 19 Astons wrecked for QOS but as ASP9MM said
    it will only take 1 hour plus (we walked round twice) so don't plan any big trips to the smoke ,just to see it plan something else too

    -{ Nice pics, In the first one I thought you were doing a Banksy. :D

    On a side note many cameras now have a setting for low light which works quite well.
    I use a little sony nex3l, which quickly takes six pics and blends them together to give
    a great clear low light shot. Although they all look fine. {[]

    I always have to make an entrance ! :))

    Apart from AJBers, is there much interest from the public ?

    yep im afraid my poor photography doesn't do it justice ,but its no airfix kit its about 5 1/2 feet long
    we was just gobsmacked at the skill these guys (MG ) have ,in putting these things together,
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Their skill is indeed amazing, I remember reading as a kid that
    The tanker model in TSWLM was over 80 feet long, now that's
    What I call a model. :))

    -{ lovely, the helicopter looks brilliant.

    At 1/4 scale, the AgustaWestland is pretty freakin' impressive. It's hanging from the cantilever hoist used to bring all the vehicles into the space.

    I went on Day Three and attendance was pretty sparse, but that was a Monday.

    Actually, just over 60' ... still not small!

    I remember feeling like Bond one day, driving along the motorway with a slight
    Turn to the right. Then directly in front an army helicopter slowly rose up above
    the bushes. :D it was amazing, and so freaking big, as it moved off over my car. :))

    60 ft is still impressive, in another sort of movie 8 inches is considered big. ;) :))

    I felt like Bond once. I was walking to Work whilst smoking a Cigarette and suddenly heard a Noise in the Bushes beside me. This made me quickly turn on my Heels with my right Hand to the Holster that was not there. I have even started to copy Bonds Breakfast Routine! (Eggs, Bacon and Toast) :))
